This was a really fun pattern I found on Pinterest.

He’s super cute. If you go down into the comments there are some links to the pattern in English. It’s a really cool technique with very minimal attaching. I decided to NOT add the tusks as she looked so cute without them. I also added some fun fabric to the inside of the ears for a pop of color. I had the metal Greek letters on hand to add to the butt for my friend. She’s not very big and turned out as cute as can be.
